Edd Nolen from our Board of Directors and our President and CEO, Debby Taylor, joined Santa at yesterday’s Kiwanis Club of Arlington holiday celebration.

What this really means is another year of partnership with a group that has stood by our mission longer than anyone else. We’re grateful for their generous donation this year and for 63 years of unwavering support for the individuals and families we serve.

Thank you, Kiwanis of Arlington, for believing in hope, healing, and the work of recovery.

Right now, an anonymous donor is doubling every gift up to $50,000, meaning your support for NCTR’s patient assistance funds goes twice as far for people who are ready for recovery.

When someone reaches out for help, your gift helps ensure that our staff are ready to receive them.

Let’s begin this season by opening the door to hope — together.

Thanksgiving gives us a moment to pause and really see the people who make this work possible. Every day, our team shows up with compassion. Families trust us with their hardest moments. And the individuals we serve choose courage again and again.

What this really means is that hope isn’t an idea here — it’s something we witness in real time. A fresh start. A steady hand. A small victory that builds into a larger one.

Today we’re thankful for every person walking their path in recovery, for the loved ones who stand beside them, and for a community that believes change is worth fighting for.

From all of us at National Capital Treatment & Recovery, we wish you a safe, warm, and hopeful Thanksgiving.

A special thanks to Cindy Blanton for representing National Capital Treatment & Recovery and helping spread warmth and kindness throughout our community.

We’re proud to have been part of this year’s VASAM Annual Conference, hosted by the Virginia Society of Addiction Medicine!

Team members Abdul Malike, Marie Charles, Adebola Abe-Fapohunda, and Tiffany Sullivan represented National Capital Treatment & Recovery, joining professionals and partners from across Virginia to share insights and strengthen collaboration in the field of addiction medicine.

It was great connecting with our long-time partners — Kelley Eason of Freedom Recovery Centers (middle-right photo) and Liz Miller of StarCity Behavioral Health (bottom-right photo).

Working together, we continue to move recovery forward—one conversation, one connection, one life at a time.

As the colors change and the air begins to chill, we’re taking a moment to look back on one of our favorite fall events!

National Capital Treatment & Recovery was proud to sponsor a hole and participate in the 5th Annual Fairways for Scott — hosted by our friends at 2 End The Stigma in Chesterfield County.
This meaningful event honors the life of Scott Zebrowski, who was lost to fentanyl poisoning, and continues his legacy by raising awareness, fostering community, and working to end the stigma surrounding substance use and recovery.

The day brought together an incredible group of partners and advocates, all united in spreading awareness and offering hope.

Other participants included:
• Freedom Recovery Centers
• StarCity Behavioral Health
• Rams In Recovery
• The Healing Place

We’re grateful to stand alongside so many dedicated partners who continue to make recovery visible — and possible.
